I'm facing a decision regarding cable/internet provider. I have Time Warner where I have BeIn Sport and a lot of Spanish league at hand. I'm considering changing over to AT&T Uverse who does NOT have BeIn Sport but they do have Gol TV. How do the two compare? Since I watch a ton of soccer/futbol probably 90% of my decision will be based on this.

BeIN, as you know, carries La Liga almost exclusively outside of Spain. They also have a great selection of other matches - as far as I know, they're the channel with the most games period (Serie A, Ligue 1, tons of WCQ, and a good dabbing of of English matches)

GolTV, I believe still has the Bundesliga, but that's about their only claim to fame. Probably some South American leagues too.

BeIN made tons of headlines last year for swooping in and effectively eviscerating GolTV's various programming, as well as ESPN generally (NBC taking the EPL didn't help ESPN either). I'd probably stick w/ BeIN, but that's just me.

I used to catch up soccer news at the 10 PM Fox Soccer channel (in the US). Now it seems no longer available with the introduction of the Fox Sport 1 and NBC Sports taking over the EPL US broadcasting right. Where do you get your daily recap nowadays (in US). Thanks.

Fox Soccer still has a daily show, but it is earlier (7 pm, I think) and is on Fox Soccer Plus. I believe it's called Fox Soccer Daily and is only a half hour, and has a completely different crew/studio/format. Gone are the goofy Canadians (R.I.P. Bobby McMahon). It's Eric Wynalda, Warren Barton, etc. broadcasting from a much flashier set located in an L.A. studio. I'v e only seen it a couple of times - can't tell if things will settle down as the season gets under way but my impression is that it won't be as good for the overall recap and synopsis of news & scores from the European leagues.
